Michael Hastings

An autopsy report has determined that journalist Michael Hastings had a mixture of drugs in his system when he was killed in a fiery car crash. The results showed that he likely took both marijuana and methamphetamine within hours of the crash, but officials don’t believe that played a role.

Close friends and associates of Michael Hastings, including Sgt. Joe Biggs, said the award-winning journalist sent out a chilling email shortly before his death, saying he believed the feds were investigating him and that he was onto a big story.

Journalist Michael Hastings was killed in a car crash this morning in Los Angeles. Hastings was 33 years old. He famously wrote the controversial ‘Rolling Stone’ article on General Stanley McChrystal that led to the general’s resignation.
